Our heart always goes out in sympathy to the

The brave undertaking. Dudes may turn M

her by, but she will ever find friends among the
more sensible. We love the girl who works We
appreciate the shop girl that sews to bring COM
forts to the home of her widowed mother. and.
we have a contempt for that shoddy, ginger

below Tilusvllle Saturday. A great deal OF the

was sold. Eight hundred dollars was realized
for fully $25 900 worth OF property. Among the
fortunate fnts Of the wreckers was one gross of
gold watches, valued al SO, 700, but watches and
fnder are both missing. The wrcckers worked

editor, and owned one-third of it, the other two
thirds being owned by Messrs Pusifer and
Andrews. Mr.. Haskell has been connected with
the Herald as reporter, editor and proprietor for
twenty-eight years. The purpose of his retire.
ment is to give more time to other business in

Whv no Many DeEalcasi~n~ 9. =. why
Sach laiastice:

A good conscience and divine grace
may do much, but if the key to = mans
body be bad, the mans life will be fail
ure. If the foundation of building is
weak, the prudent owner promptly re-
pairs it.
Is there not some reason why promi-
dence, become criminals, and seek foreign
asylums
The professed Christian, the devoted
father, the most honored men, after fil!-
ing positions of trust for years, fall. We
see this daily, anil have found no solution
to the mystery.
If the medca! profession gave this mat
ter their attention, would it not BE- better
than wasting their time grinding over
their 'isms or, worse still, declaiming
against improvements that benefit man
kind, but do not happen to come from
their ghly-respected schools They are
being taunted by the scientists that they
are but little further advanced in their
studies than they were years ago, while
a wonderful advancement of benefit to
suffering humanity, has been made by
scientists outside the profession.
A few years ago, the medical profess
sion proclaimed to the world that bright's
disease was incurabIe They are unable
to explain in the slightest degree its
causes. 1t is only within two or three
years thatit has become known that such
disease is only an advanced kidney
trouble, which was treated with indiffer-
ence At first, as of no consequence. Within
few years the truth has become estab-
lIshed that most diseases arise from de-
rangement of the kidneys; that if these
organs are in healthy condition, these
diseases would not exist, and when cor
rected, the disease ceases.
For years this has been the keynote of
the great remedy known as Warmers safe
cure, and from the best obtainable in
formation, the fame of the remedy comes
from outside the medical code. Never
theless, the popularity of Warmers safe
cure continues to increase, regardless of
its place Of birth. The liberal branches
of the medical profession are fast recog-
nlzing its merits, and We expect they will
ere long be proclaimed in medical halls
and conventions. Perhaps its proprietors
and perfector may never see it, but the
time will surely come, as it has come with
other valuable discoveries. Perhaps a
hundred years from now, the discoverer
of this valuable remedy may receive some
honorable title for the benefit be mas con-
ferred upon mankind.

United States Tobacco Journal

The Florida enterprise is awakening great
interest in the trade circles of Europe. We have
already acquainted our readers with The COM
ments on it by the Dutch papers, and we will
now append the opinion expressed by the" Dent
sc]te 1abIk Zettun9,' which reads rs follows:
"Great hopes are entertained iu America from
the eff rts made in the extension OF the culture
of tobacco in Fleris, and it is believed that it
will result in successful competition with Su-
matra. Certainly ii is to be wished in the inter-
est of our cignr industry that through such COM
petition stop may be put To The growing rise
in the price of Suma'ra. and we are glad TO
learn that under The firm, The Florida Tobacco
Producing and Trading Co., n company has
been formed in New York with capital of
100000, etc"

man contemporary will be welcome to our Flor

1t is reported elsewhere that Captain Bunce is
not entirely satisfied with the Atlanta
That is 10 say, he thinks she would be all
right if she were to be almost wholly rebuilt
One slight objection which he makes is that in
heavy head sea she is in danger of going to the
bottom. Then he adds that her armament is by
no means what it ought to be, and that ii shot
from the enemy should hit her bows it would go
clean through her
With The exception OF these unimp rtant de-
fecis she is about as good vessel as the late Re
